This memo provides a summary of the research completed by staff regarding parking requirements for deed-restricted affordable housing, including a deeper dive into parking utilization rates, peer city requirements, and model ordinances. The research and discussion are followed by recommendations from staff. The recommendations within follow the recommendations in the adopted Affordable Housing Strategy to reduce minimum parking requirements for deed-restricted affordable housing, specifically in mixed use zones and transitoriented developments (TOD).
